What is the experience of a five-star hotel without heating on a day of 10 degrees to 8 degrees? It really happened to me, and it was a Sofitel. Anyway, I caught a cold directly on the second day after staying, and the windows were closed tightly. The equipment Everything else is nonsense. I complained to the front desk the next day. Anyway, the attitude was very sincere, but the problem had occurred and the facilities were very backward. The front desk service was very enthusiastic and communicated with me from the perspective of the guest. Anyway, it is a five-star hotel in Paris. It's really hard to describe

A grand and majestic Parisian legend. After its recent renovation, the hotel shines like a luxurious diamond, so dazzling that at times it feels less like a hotel and more like a true royal palace. You can't help but wonder: why go to the Louvre when you're literally living in it? I especially want to highlight the exceptional spa area – its harmony and elegant style are unparalleled. The hotel staff are impeccable. The Four Seasons George V is probably the best and most magnificent of all the Four Seasons hotels.

The hotel was exactly what you'd expect from a palace. This was my third time in Paris, and this time my main goal was to stay in a wonderful hotel. I was moved by the beauty of the 19th-century mansion, the view from the large terrace was stunning, and above all, the high level of hospitality made me feel comfortable. Upon leaving, I forgot one of my bags due to a lack of checking, but they called a taxi and delivered it to the airport. Thanks to the Shangri-La Hotel, my trip with my daughter became an even more wonderful memory. I hope to visit again next year. Thank you very much.

The hotel itself is located in a very good area. Unfortunately, the room assigned to me was directly next to the bar, where there was a party on the same night. Although I am a young traveler, I still needed a good night’s sleep, which was not possible due to the noise. The room was very basic, with limited amenities, and did not meet expectations. Additionally, the service was not up to standard. I had to wait in line for almost 30 minutes to check in, as the staff member handling the transition between shifts did not seem to notice or prioritize new arriving guests. Overall, the level of professionalism was disappointing.

The location is very convenient and this is a great place to stay if you travel onwards by train as it’s right in between Gare du Nord and Gare de l’Est. The price is also very good but be aware the rooms are really quite small. Personally I didn’t mind at all because the layout is very practical and it’s only for a night or two.

The location is fantastic, just a few minutes' walk to the station. While the area around the train station can be a bit chaotic, the hotel's security measures are excellent—you need a key card to enter and access the floors, which made us feel very safe. The room was surprisingly spacious, quite large for a European hotel of its class. The front desk service was commendable; they were not only enthusiastic but also allowed me to check in early, which was a huge help. The only downsides were that the heating in the room wasn't quite enough, and the train noise was pretty noticeable at night. I'd recommend it to travelers like us who need to catch an early morning train.

Pullman Paris Centre - Bercy

Overall, for a hotel in Paris, this one offers good value for money. Although it's located in the 12th arrondissement, which is a bit suburban, the proximity to the metro station makes it very convenient. It's only two stops to the famous Châtelet station. The room wasn't small either. It seems like many Accor brand hotels are in this area. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby. However, finding a laundromat was really difficult and far – you'd probably need an electric scooter to get to a residential area about 2 kilometers away. What's highly recommended is their gym. It occupies the entire basement level and even offers free apples for an energy boost. There's a wide variety of equipment, and the dumbbells come in a full range of weights, including heavy ones. There are also different small rooms for individual workouts, along with separate restrooms and shower rooms. My biggest disappointment was their breakfast. Even though the ingredients seemed high-quality and possibly organic, paying nearly 200 RMB per person and not finding anything that suited a Chinese palate and was healthy was frustrating. There were no leafy green vegetables, just some very basic, raw cabbage hearts. Some of the cold cuts were surprisingly unappetizing. The staff also seemed very rushed. I only found out after leaving that you could ask a server for coffee. The only thing I'd recommend is the freshly made omelets – bring your own vegetables to get enough protein. Taste-wise, it was honestly not as good as Hampton by Hilton. Another overall impression is that hotels in France don't have the same warmth as those in Belgium, and the English proficiency was slightly inferior. Don't even expect any Chinese-speaking staff.

This is the worst experience I have ever had with all hotels and all stars that I stayed before. I believe the owners/management of this hotel intend to cheap all clients, if possible. We have prepaid all our 3 restaurants ima but to arrive at the check in counter at 1700 and 1830 on the check in day to be advised that our room type was fully booked, the family 2 connecting rooms my friends booked were only good for one room and they will add 2 extra beds. Over the 3 days during my stay, every time I passed by the reception area, I can see customer complaining while checking in and out for all sorts of reasons. Those customers booked their prepaid rooms via ***********, Trip.com and C-Trip. The staff at the reception have the worst behavior and extremely rude manner. I have to teach them how to behave at least like a human being.

I chose this hotel for a five-night stay about two weeks before my trip, mainly for its convenient location to Roland Garros. The front desk staff provided good service, and the overall facilities were decent. The bathroom was a bit small with some drainage issues, and there was no coffee in the room, but these were all acceptable. For breakfast, they had freshly made poached eggs and omelets, and the menu changed a few times over the five days, so the overall quality was quite good. The hotel's location is excellent, with many restaurants nearby and easy access to public transportation. You can even walk to the Eiffel Tower.

Experience is what I would expect from a 2 star hotel, although the lack of air conditioning really did not help during the sudden heatwave that occured while we were there. The location of this place was its only saving grace. It is definitely one of the more affordable options in this area, with great connectivity to the metro and bus lines. Although, it is situated in a sketchy back alleyway and there is poor sound isolation from the outside. I found it hard to sleep at night and in the morning from people chatter and other noise. If I only stayed for 2 or 3 days in cooler weather, I probably wouldn't mind staying here again, just because of its excellent location. If not, there are many other hotels in this same area that I'm sure would offer a better experience, albeit at a higher price point.
